knot between breasts
Anonymous
Wednesday, June 25, 2008 at 10:27 AMI just found a knot between my breasts as well. I can't find anything on the internet that addresses this type of lump and the location as being significant. My doctor can't see me until next week and I'm beside myself! I'm 53 years old and my sister already has had breast cancer. What was the outcome of your exam? I hope it was good!
thanks.

Hello,
You're right. Any "bump" or "knot" or "lump" felt in or around or between the breasts should be examined by a doctor. This is the only way to know for sure.
As you're planning to, make an appointment with your doctor. Your awareness might be heightened right now, yes, but it's best to be sure and stay safe.
Stay in touch and let us know how the 3-Day Walk goes!
Best,
Maria
